Applicants must live in Trustee Area 3, which is in Corona roughly south of the Norco city limits, north of Ontario Avenue, east of Maple Street and west of Interstate 15 on the north end of the trustee area or Ellis Street south of the BNSF Railway tracks that run along Samson Avenue . Trustee area maps are on the district's website, www.cnusd.k12.ca.us under the "board" tab near the upper left, and Trustee Area 3 is the reddish orange area.

To be eligible, applicants must also be registered voters. They must complete a candidate information sheet and a supplemental candidate statement of up to 200 words. Those forms are also on the district's website or can be picked up at the district office, 2820 Clark Ave., Norco. All paperwork should be returned to Linda White, assistant to the superintendent, by Friday, Aug. 29.

Because school board seats are nonpartisan, candidate statements may not include the applicants' political party or membership in any partisan political organization.

The board will interview candidates in a public meeting at 6 p.m. Â Sept. 16 and then vote on whom to appoint. For more information, call White at 951-736-5003.
